You show up early, someone gave you the wrong time
Try on six outfits just to look like seven other guys
But it's alright, I don't think no one notices
Yeah, it's all right, she probably gonna make the most of it
[Pre-Chorus]
And you wonder what it's like when nobody's a stranger
People shout your name, "Hey, look who finally came here"
The jokes you tell are trash, but they're still laughing
And that's something that never happens to you
But the jokes are still trash
[Chorus]
So I'm telling ya, "Hey
Don't you let that big head get into your way
You can take a deep breath
Don't take a deep check on the talking
Everybody's so drunk they forgot it's okay
It's just a song from yesterday"
[Verse 2]
Saw you join your hundredth conversation 'bout your week
And you're trying to find the time to say something
And then right when you speak, yeah, all right
Halfway through they stopped listening to you, but it's all right
I wasn't talking to them anyway
[Pre-Chorus]
And you wonder what it's like when you can be conceited
Best friends turn to yes-men and dating comes too easy
The jokes you tell are trash, but they're still laughing
And that's something that never happens to you
But the jokes are still trash
[Chorus]
So I'm telling ya, "Hey
Don't you let that big head get into your way
You can take a deep breath
But don't take a deep check on the talking
Everybody's so drunk they forgot it's okay
It's just a song from yesterday"
[Bridge]
And they all get stick-and-pokes on weeknights
Broken bones and street fights
And I'm just counting hours that I should stay
And they got more rings than they've got fingers
Anxiety that lingers
And I'm just writing songs about what I did yesterday
[Chorus]
So I'm telling ya, "Hey
Don't you let that big head get into your way
You can take a deep breath
But don't take a deep check on the talking
Everybody's so drunk they forgot it's okay
It's just like you always say
[Outro]
It's just a song from yesterday
A song from yesterday
It's just a song from yesterday
It's just like you always say
It's just a song from yesterday
